Why does my DT-466 have no oil pressure?
Discussion in ‘ General Discussion ‘ started by rch, Nov 26, 2005 . One of our Dt-466’s has a oil pressure problem. First it’s a mechanical 1995 model, and the engine is rebuilt with a new oil pump. On start (when cold) the buzzers and gauges indicate no oil pressure.
Is the dt466e a lack of power?
The second you put it in gear it has no power. 20 mph top speed. Tested fuel pressure today at the filter. It is only reading 40 lbs at idle and it dips down to 34 or so when accelerating. I assume this is a fuel problem, but what is the problem and where do we start? Thanks in advance if anyone has done this one.
Where is the fuel pump on a DT-466?

I have a 2000 4700 DT-466, would what you call the fuel pump be the same thing they call the “high pressure pump” in the book that the lines from the filter go to??
Why does my dt466e no start-fuel problem?
Got that all fixed. Realized that my primer pump would leak when I would pump it, replaced the entire assembly. Filled both filters, truck fired on the first try. Now today go to run a call, cranks and cranks wont start. Gave a shot of ether, fires but wont run on diesel.
